Since updating to Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.120, the game causes the entire system to freeze when screen recording with audio enabled.
Device:
Realme 9
Android 14 (Realme UI 5)
Behavior:
Screen recording WITHOUT audio works normally.
When screen recording WITH audio (system sound or system + mic), the phone freezes after ~2–3 seconds.
A system message appears: “Close System UI / Pengolah Sistem”.
The device becomes unresponsive and requires a forced reboot.
This issue happens with:
Built-in screen recorder
Third-party screen recorders (XRecorder, AZ Screen Recorder)
The problem does NOT occur on Minecraft versions prior to 1.21.120 (e.g. 1.21.114 works fine with screen recording + audio).
This appears to be related to changes in the Android audio system introduced in Minecraft 1.21.120+.

When I record the screen in Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.131 with internal game audio enabled, the recording freezes.
But when I record the screen with audio turned off, it does not freeze.
I have the same issue (Redmi 14c)
